– A measure of the degree to which two variables
move together relative to their individual mean
values over time.

▪ Expected return
E ( r p ) = w B E ( rB ) + w S E ( rS )
where w1+w2 =1
▪ Expected variance
v a r( rp ) = ( w B B )2 + (w S S )2 + 2 (w B B )( w S S ) B S
▪ Example
E ( rB ) = 5 % B = 8%
E ( rS ) = 1 0 % S = 1 9 % B S = 0 .2
▪ Expected return
E ( r p ) = w1 E ( r1 ) + w 2 E ( r2 ) + w 3 E ( r3 )

❑ Diversification
❑ Although the
expected rate of
return of any portfolio
is simply the weighted
average returns, but it
is not true of the std.
❑ Potential benefits
from diversification
arise when
correlation is less
than perfectly
positive.
Diversification in many risky assets
Diversifiable or non-
systematic risk:
✓ The component of risk
that can be diversified
away with portfolio
investment.
✓ Firm specific risk
The Systematic risk.
✓ The risk that cannot
be diversified away
the systematic risk.
✓ Related with general
market condition
